I do not quite remember when the flavor of Green tea became such a hit in Hong Kong (and one that I once hoped it would die out soon). To prove me wrong, green tea has been going strong and seems like Kitk*t in Green Tea flavor is a must-​buy souvenir when you go to Japan. Anyways, I would not be surprised to hear that there was one restaurant that specializes in green tea cuisine.
I was very skeptical when I first heard about it. I was like, seriously, how could you come up with so many different dishes if they all tasted just like green tea? I prefer green tea when I have sushi as it cleanses your mouth so that you can fully taste different sushi in between (as it should be…) But my friend convinced me to give it a try so I listened to him and we went there in one afternoon.
The décor of this place was rather cozy and relaxing, just like a Japanese café and I liked the easiness of this place already. I am not much of an adventurer so I left most of the dishes for my friend to have and I just ordered a Swirl ice cream with green tea plus vanilla flavor. I was rather satisfied with it to be honest, sometimes when I have green tea flavored ice cream they tasted rather too artificial or too sweet for some reason, but not here, it was rather natural and fresh. The cone however felt like it had been sitting around since last decade waiting to be eaten unfortunately. Anyhow, since they did not mess up with the green tea flavor (how could they… it is their signature flavor) I probably will be more bold in choosing my food next time.
